WHERE & HOW TO FARM Where to farm A crop field with crafted sprinklers placed among the planted rows.
Build the irrigation area around the sprinkler coverage you actually have. Sprinklers water their range on the daily cycle, but newly planted crops may still need manual watering on their first day. Expand the field only after checking that each planted tile is covered and crops are progressing.
Before you go The sprinkler recipe unlocked through farming progression. The exact parts listed in the current crafting recipe. A crop plot sized to the sprinkler coverage you can verify. Check the sprinkler recipe at the crafting table and gather the listed materials. Craft the sprinkler and place it within the field you intend to irrigate. Plant a small test area within its coverage rather than filling the whole field at once. Water newly planted crops by hand when needed on planting day. Check the crops after the next morning cycle for signs that the sprinkler coverage is working. Add rows only where sprinkler coverage reaches the soil; water uncovered tiles manually. Recheck growth after expanding so misplaced plots do not remain dry. Farming tips Treat the visible watered area as the limit of your field until you confirm coverage in play. Leave access around the device so you can inspect crops and adjust the layout. Repeat, collect and use Keep the sprinkler in place and use its daily watering cycle for each new crop planting. Replace or reposition it if the field layout changes.
Common mistakes Planting beyond coverage leaves outer crops dependent on hand watering; keep uncovered plots watered yourself. Assuming a new seed is watered automatically on its first day can interrupt its start; water it manually when needed. Expanding before checking growth makes coverage errors harder to spot; test a compact section first. When to stop or switch Stop adding rows when you cannot confirm coverage or keep uncovered soil watered. Expand after the current field shows that the layout works.
